Dears,
Some strange question has been raised by ACCAite. ACCAite, do you know how all the study material of any designation came/comes into development either it is ACCA or CIMA or ICAP or whatever and who writes such books?
Do you make any correlation of books with the HOLD on a given market? Do you make any correlation of market demand of professionals of a given body with the books they provide for study and preparation? Do you believe the key market positions are allocated by employers after inquiring the candidates "which books have you read"? Will you at any real life interview ask your prospective employer that I have read bala bala study material, so, I should be preferred or my emoluments should be greater? Loving analysis by you; and it speaks out.
Brother, there can be a lot of fronts where Pakistan as a nation would be lagging behind. Professionals of whatever field make out their careers by studying whatever material they acquire. People do study many books and resources for a single subject; and there was a time when a complete research was used to be instituted by students of professional bodies. They used to explore libraries and go through many ideas and materials. Certainly they were far better and much more learned although qualifying at that time was difficult.
Still, people tend to experience many things and give a look to various materials. This makes out "people" and not the "books" or "material" they study or go through. This is the essense.
Yes, I agree that CA students do use material of ACCA, CIMA (and may be others as well) along with some standardized well reputed authors that are always at the core of knowledge and development. I personally used a book of CIMA for one subject during my studies and I have no hesitation to say that it was such a nice work. Who is denying the good quality of any material, if it is there? Have you seen any post? The thread being discussed is not about study materials; so this matter was not so far discussed.
I at the same time again remind you that whatever books you have or you study; in majority of the cases (in Pak), your teachers are CAs (or CMAs) who mostly have not studied ACCA or whatever materials in their times. It tells you that a "person" is the ultimate and not the "materials".
One last thing, study materials don't have any correlation with market position and demand of professionals. Academics and professional growth although go side by side but the profession is the eventual element. I hope you can understand.
Regards,
KAMRAN.

Wow Kamrab saahab, you really can raise a big issue out of nothing. You should go back and read my post again, i mentioned its not ' THAT BIG OF A DEAL ' but where we are mentioning every little details of ACCA, why not this ? It was that simple Sir. Plus, let me assure you i am not nearly as dumb as you think i am. Who in world would ask what books did u study at the interview? It was an out of topic comment and i mentioned it.
Loving analysis from me and it speaks out? You really are a big man arguing with a person who s far younger and inexperienced than you.
.... "One last thing, study materials don't have any correlation with market position and demand of professionals. Academics and professional growth although go side by side but the profession is the eventual element. I hope you can understand."
I am rather offended by this comment of yours, i dont know maybe in your surroundings you may have to get down to this level to explain such things to individuals but thanks, i dont need any such suggestions or ' KNOWLEDGE ' .
Anyway, this has got rather bitter ... afterall with time ap apnay baray honay ka suboot detay ja rahay hain...
later.
